Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the disputed condition is necessary and reasonable, having regard to the effect of the proposed change on the character and appearance of the host property and the area
  • Whether the disputed condition is necessary and reasonable, having regard to the effect of the proposed change on the living conditions of the occupiers of Summerfields, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
  • Whether the disputed condition is necessary and reasonable, having regard to the effect of the proposed change on highway safety

What decided it

The condition was necessary and reasonable only in relation to Classes A, B and C to protect the character of the former agricultural building, but not for Classes D and E which are sufficiently controlled by the GPDO's inherent limitations.
